Congratulations on your success! Winning the battle against anorexia is quite the achievement. At 5'3" and 112lbs, your Body Mass Index is at around 19.8 which is normal :) It is a little bit on the lower side of Normal so if you gained about 5-10 lbs, it would be ideal but you'd be okay if you only gained a couple of more pounds. As you remain in a stabilized, normal weight your body will recognize this and begin to ovulate again. Give it some time, this sometimes takes from 6 months to a year--depending on the severity of anorexia
Exercising is great as long as you are not overdoing it-- since you're still trying to put on some pounds, I'd limit it to 3 times a week.
